Abstract

We propose an approach for pose estimation based on a multi-camera system with known internal camera parameters. We only assume for the multi-camera system that the cameras of the system have fixed orientations and translations between each other. In contrast to existing approaches for reconstruction from multi-camera systems we introduce a rigid motion estimation for the multi-camera system itself using all information of all cameras simultaneously even in the case of non-overlapping views of the cameras. Furthermore we introduce a technique to estimate the pose parameters of the multi-camera system automatically.
